Turner v. State

920 So. 2d 1217, 2006 Fla. App. LEXIS 2204, 2006 WL 398186

Opinion

WHATLEY, Judge.

Theodore Turner appeals the order denying his motion for postconviction relief. He raises several issues, but we find merit in only one.

The trial court summarily denied claim two of Turner’s motion on the ground that it was proeedurally barred because it had been raised on direct appeal. The trial court misinterpreted Turner’s claim. On direct appeal Turner raised the issue of whether the trial court erred in finding that he had willfully and substantially violated probation. In his postconviction motion he alleged that trial counsel was ineffective for failing to argue that the evidence was insufficient to support a violation of condition nine of his probation. These are different allegations, see Corzo v. State, 806 So.2d 642 (Fla. 2d DCA 2002), and the latter allegation was not proeedurally barred.

Accordingly, we affirm the order on Turner’s postconviction motion except with regard to claim two. We reverse and remand to allow the trial court to either attach portions of the record refuting claim two or hold an evidentiary hearing.

Affirmed in part, reversed in part, and remanded.
